springs? help needed

I have a 1998 Honda Civic and i was looking to get it lowered and i found some used springs for a 1995. Will these fit correctly, and should i get new springs or these used ones? Any suggestions or comments accepted. The used springs I was looking at are neuspeed short springs for a 1.75 front drop and a 1.5 rear drop. Please help.

my brother ran neuspeed race springs on his 2000 coupe and was very happy with it. He ran KYB AGX shocks, Neuspeed race springs...was a GREAT setup.....my 2 cents

Get tein coilovers. Don't just get springs... that's the cheap mans way out. Don't buy cheap stuff for your car.

says the guy with the Porsche symbol as his AVATAR.

As you can read, he doesn't have an endless supply of cash, so springs are a much more economical way for him imo. Not only that, with the Teins, you have to send them back to get rebuilt everytime they wear out. With the springs, you just slap in a new set of shocks and your car isn't out of commision while they rebuild them. my 2 cents
